Is there anyone know, how many times do I have to wash coco peat to get rid of the salt? Best Regards Rifat Tarik Yararbas
There is no good answer without a conductivity meter or a dissolved solids meter or measurement I have had several different blocks from several sources. I have one source that needs none (it is sold that way but cost more) most will do with 3 good washings of good quality water. (one sample took more) A little fertilizer with potassium nitrate and magnesium nitrate in the first washing is also said to help by Bob at Antec. Do not confuse this with Coconut Husk Chips as there are several of these that need little washing. Wayne Roberts Flower Supply www.orchidmix.com
